Superior thread Cones - best place, cheapest
#12
A friend’s DH bought about 100 spools of a kind of lavender thread at an auction and she used it in all of her piecing, said it was a perfect color. That’s kind of what I’m looking for now, a general color to use long arming as I don’t want 100 spools of thread.

I use only four colors: black, white, light taupe and dark taupe. Black and white thread color for black or white quilts. I find that light and dark taupe thread seems to blend into all other colors.

I usu get my threat at the quilt show in Paducah. I buy the cones & prewound bobbins for all my piecing & quilting on George. They usu have show specials but it is just easier for me. I get neutral colors - Cream, Sand, Silver, & Gray & use them for all my piecing as they blend in quite well. I have gotten some at Red Rock Threads on-line (redrockthreads.com). The prewounds are a little pricey but I find the convenience worth it. Besides, they hold more thread than what I can wind myself. Happy Quilting! Kathy

sewingmachinesplus.com has some good sales. I've gotten 30% off a couple of times on the superior masterpiece and king tut
of course the sale is not going on right now When they do have a sale, I stock up
I have eyed red rock threads but never purchased, so I am glad to hear others like them. I might try them sometime
